1 John 3
1 See how great a love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God! For this cause the world does not know us, because it did not know him.
Mulangai ni luganu lya namna gani atupelili tata, kuj'ha twikutibhwa bhana bha K'yara, na naha ndo kyataj'hele. Kwa ndabha Obho bhulimwengu bhutumanyilepi kwa kuj'ha ghwammnyidumu muene.
2 Beloved, now we are children of God. It is not yet revealed what we will be; but we know that when he is revealed, we will be like him, for we will see him just as he is.
Bhaganwa tete henu ndo bhana bha K'yara na j'hidhihiri kilepi bado jinsi kyatubetakuj'ha. Tumanyili kuj'ha kristu paibeta kubhonekana tukufuatana na numuene, kwani twibetakumbona kama kyaaj'hele.
3 Everyone who has this hope set on him purifies himself, even as he is pure.
Na kilammonga ambaj'he aj'he ni bhubisisya obho kuhusu bhwakati bhwa bhwihida bhwabhaij'he lakisibhu kwa muene, ikwij'hosya muene kama muene kya api'hele n'takatifu.
4 Everyone who sins also commits lawlessness. Sin is lawlessness.
Kila munu j'haij'hendelela kubhomba sambi ibomola Sheria. Kwa ndabha sambi ndo bhubomolaji bhwa Sheria.
5 You know that he was revealed to take away our sins, and no sin is in him.
Mmanyili Kristu adhalilishibhu ili kusibhosya sambi kabisa. Na mugati mwake kuj'helepi ni sambi.
6 Whoever remains in him does not sin. Whoever sins has not seen him and does not know him.
Aj'helepi hata mmonga j'haidumu mugati mwake ni kuj'hendelela kubhomba sambi. Aj'helepi munu ata mmonga j'haidumu mu sambi ikaj'helayi ambwene au kummanya muene.
7 Little children, let no one lead you astray. He who does righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
Bhana bhaghanwa, mkata kuj'hendekela kupotosibhwa ni munu j'hoj'hioha j'hela. J'ha ibhomba haki ndo n'kolo haki, Kama vile Kristu muene kyaaj'hele ni haki.
8 He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. To this end the Son of God was revealed: that he might destroy the works of the devil.
J'haibhomba sambi ndo ghwaibilisi, kwandabha ibilisi ndo mmbomba sambi kuh'omela kubhwandelu. Kwa ndabha ej'he mwana ghwa K'yara adhalilishibhu ili abhwesiagha kusyonanga mbombo sya ibilisi.
9 Whoever is born of God does not commit sin, because his seed remains in him, and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
j'hoj'hioha j'hola j'haahogoliki ni K'yara ibhombalepi sambi, kwandabha mbegu j'ha K'yara j'hi tama mugati mwake. Ibhwesyalepi kuj'hendelela kubhomba sambi kwandabha ahogoliki nu K'yara.
10 In this the children of God are revealed, and the children of the devil. Whoever does not do righteousness is not of God, neither is he who does not love his brother.
Katika e'le bhana bha K'yara ni bhana bha ibilisi bhimanyikana. j'hoj'hioha j'haibhomba kyakij'hele Kya haki, ghwa K'yara lepi, bhwala j'hola ambaj'he ibhwesyalepi kun'gana ndogo munu.
11 For this is the message which you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another—
Kwani obho ndo bhujumbe ambagho mughup'heliki kuh'omela kubhwandu, kuj'ha twilondeka kuganana yoti kwa yoti,
12 unlike Cain, who was of the evil one and killed his brother. Why did he kill him? Because his deeds were evil, and his brother’s righteous.
sio kama kaini ambaj'he aj'hele mwovu na an'komili ndongo munu. Na kwandabha j'hakiki an'komili? Kwandabha matendo ghake ghaj'hele maovu, ni gha ndogomunu ghaj'hele gha haki.
13 Do not be surprised, my brothers, if the world hates you.
Bhalongo bhangu, Mkatakusyangala, kama bhulimwengu ubekubhadadila.
14 We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. He who does not love his brother remains in death.
Tumanyili tumalili kuhoma mu mauti ni kuj'hingila mu bhusima, kwandabha tubhaganili bhalongo. J'hoj'hioha ambaj'he aduli luganu idumu mu mauti.
15 Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has consummate (aiōnios g166) life remaining in him.
Munu j'hej'hioha j'haikan'dadila ndogomunu ndo nkomi. Na mmanyili kuj'ha bhusima bhwa milele bhwitama lepi mugati mwa nkomi. (aiōnios g166)
16 By this we know love, because he laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers.
Mu e'le tulimanyili luganu, kwa ndabha Kristu ahomisye bhuhai bhwake kwa ndabha j'hitu.
17 But whoever has the world’s goods and sees his brother in need, then closes his heart of compassion against him, how does God’s love remain in him?
Natu twilondeka kughabhosya maisha ghitu kwa ndabha j'ha bhukamu. Lakini j'hoj'hioha j'ha aj'hele ni fenu, na akambona ndongo munu j'ha aj'he ni bhuhitaji, lakini akabhubesya n'tama ghwake bhwa huruma kwandabha j'hiake: je, luganu lwa K'yara bhwitama bhuli mugati mwa muene?
18 My little children, let’s not love in word only, or with the tongue only, but in deed and truth.
Bhana bhangu bhaganwa, tusigani kwa milomo bhwala kwa malobhi mat'opu bali mu fitendo ni bhukweli.
19 And by this we know that we are of the truth and persuade our hearts before him,
Mu e'le tumanyili kuj'ha tete tuj'hele mu bhukweli, ni miteema ghitu j'hithibitika kwa muene.
20 because if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.
Ikajhiayi Kama mi'teema ghitu j'hikatuhukumu, K'yara ndo m'baha kuliko miteema ghitu, ni muene imanya mambo ghoha.
21 Beloved, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have boldness toward God;
Bhapenzi, Kama mi'teema ghitu ghibelepikuhukumu tuj'hele ni bhusisya kwa K'yara.
22 so whatever we ask, we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight.
Na kyokyoha kyatwis'oma tubelakukij'hamb'elela kuh'omela kwa muene kwa ndabha tukasikamula amri syake na twibhomba mambo ghaghipendasya pamihu pake.
23 This is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and love one another, even as he commanded.
Na e'j'he ndo amri j'hiake j'ha kuj'ha twilondeka kukyera mu lihina lya mwanabha Yesu Kristu ni kuganana tete kwa tete Kama Kya atupelili amri syake.
24 He who keeps his commandments remains in him, and he in him. By this we know that he remains in us, by the Spirit which he gave us.
j'ha ikasitii kya amri syake idumu mugati mwake, ni K'yara itama mugati mwake. Na kwandabha ej'he tumanyili kuj'ha itama mugati mwitu, kwa j'hola Roho j'haatupelili.
